Kotagiri
|
Considered as the hill stations of antiquity, Kotagiri is a lovely hill resort roosting amongst the Nilgiri Hills.
Beautiful tae estates form its backdrop; the place draws tourists in
large number which can be owed to its spellbinding imageries. At the
time of colonization, British used it for getting reprieve from
scorching summer heat. The sylvan charm associated with the place is
typical of any hill station. A nice trekking destination for adventure
seekers and a paradise for nature enthusiasts, the place is known for
its solitude.
Approachable from a road lying 10 kilometers from Kotagiri,
this viewing point offers a fantastic view of Mysore Plateau. The
massive Thengumarahada farming cooperative is also visible from here.
Kodanad is also called Terminus Country as it forms part of Nilgiri's
eastern edge. The vast expanse of paddy fields and valleys as seen from
here paint a charming picture.

Early morning in the Nilgiris, and the vegetation is covered with
needles of icy frost. This flower is glazed with a coating of it. The
temperature at 8 AM on a January morning was 9 degrees Celsius.
